First time getting around to using the toolhead. I'm pretty sure it was a 2nd hand part. Giving a hard whack is okay, but I'd really just rather get it fixed right.

I just bought the Quest 2 myself. I'm a total newb with the VR setup, but it's a very engaging technology. I heard 'Gun Club' was a fun first person shooter but haven't bought yet. Link

Correct, the shaft alignment pin doesn't align correctly. If i switch over to my 9mm tool head, it works perfectly. The alignment shaft is a press-in part, so I'd probably need to send it back to Dillon if it's really the problem. Here's a video of the bent index pin: https://gfycat.com/flawedsnarlingjaeger Here's a 9mm tool head that works perfectly in the same 1050: https://gfycat.com/vigorousadvancedhippopotamus

What's the difference? I have a tool head that doesn't fit my 1050 correctly. Either the shaft between station 8 and 1 is bent, or it's just for a different machine.

I thought most of it was filmed in New Mexico? Just like the Yellowstone series about a Montana ranch being filmed in Utah. Longmire started out well, but after the forth season or so, it started running out of steam. Still, a pretty good series in all.

Best not to mix up the order of operations. And in these Covid times, being at 98.6 is a good sign.

98.6 and holding.

I got this one: Link It's available in .223/556 or 308.

Search these forums.

Ammoseek has a reloading search. There's no large or small primers to be found in the realm at any price. Never seen that before.

@SmeegPlease post some pictures of the offending brass so we can all learn.

The question was regarding buying new equipment or just staffing up. I thought it would be cheaper to staff up rather than buy new equipment since if/when the demand wanes.

They could go to three shifts and just pay for the extra payroll costs. Of course working a machine 24hrs/day would lead to increased maintenance costs, but little out of pocket when you can sell everything that you make.

Ohhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Ohhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Get a reloading book and read it before you start. You'll need an endless number of tools and widgets, so be prepared that this will not save you any money. Women will not swoon and name babies after you.

I have two 1050's now, but would like to do some rifle loading with a single stage as a proof of concept more or less. Eventually I'll automate the 1050's, but for now they work and are just fun to create ammo with.

Cool stuff. I like it.

Yes. The 1100 should be able to do that well.

No trimming needed for 9mm. You should be able to decap and size in one station. For 223 and 308, you'll need to trim at some point along the way. With one toolhead, you can can decap, swage, trim, and then full length size. Another toolhead can prime, powder, seat a bullet, and then factory crimp if needed.

Forget reloading ammo, the real money is to figure out how to reload primers.

I thought Kingdom of Heaver was about the Crusades?

I think that there's more micro-plastics in cosmetics and bath products than what's given off in an 132F bath, but I'm no scientist. Regarding autism, I would think that's due to us having kids later in life where the quality of the sperm and the eggs are not what they once used to be. But once again, I'm talking out my ear.

The thicker cuts is really where the sous vide shines. Normally if you have a 1.5" thick ribeye, you have to grill that a long time to get the steak consistently done in the middle. By that time, you have a well done outer portion of the steak and a rare inside. With sous vide, it's all at a perfect 132F and you're ready to finish as you like.

What would you recommend as a single stage?

My 2cents would be stay with the 1100.

Wind River is one hell of a movie.
